Summary

During a raid upon the First Order fleet Poe's X-WIng develops a fault and starts going down. Hux has been forced into a TIE fighter due to lack of experienced pilots and is also going down after being hit. Poe makes a split second decision to try and save the pilot of the TIE fighter, not knowing who is inside. What follows is strange for both of them, but can the General and the pilot learn to tolerate one another?

Summary

Bilbo supposes it’s been there from the very start, perhaps since that fateful night when he heard that deep voice singing for the first time, a harrowing song about a home lost to dragon fire that echoed through the halls of Bag End. He doesn’t know for sure, it might as well have happened gradually, as he’d spent time in the King’s presence in those first weeks of travel.

But he’s certain of one thing, Bilbo realises as he stares at the crinkled, blood-stained petals of the blue iris he’d just coughed up—he’s going to die for Thorin Oakenshield, and it won’t matter if it’s because of dragon fire or the love that makes deadly flowers grow in his lungs.

In which the Hanahaki Disease, known as the flower sickness, occurs in lovestruck Hobbits whose affections will never be reciprocated. Or so they would believe.

Summary

You lost your mind.That was all that went through Amon’s head as he pulled the unconscious ghoul closer to his chest; cradling it in his arms.His planning only went so far as to get Eyepatch away from that place. That room to be more exact. Now he was left at a crossroad.

--

Amon finds Kaneki during the Aogiri Raid and takes the half-ghoul home in hope of finally learning why Eyepatch didn’t kill him that night. He had never expected he would come to care so much for the monster he was meant to kill.

Canon divergence where Kaneki didn’t break free and the Aogiri Raid didn’t happen until about two months later (Therefore making it impossible for Anteiku to exploit the chaos and get far enough in with their saving mission before having to retreat).
